So LeChuck.....: Major Spoliers

[darknessofheart]

What do you guys make of the new LeChuck? I personally think something is going on with him and Elaine. Elaine seem way too sure that he has become good, after all he's done to her. She's infected with the pox so that might have something to do with it. So do you think he is a nice guy now or if it's just role playing and he has other plans in mind?

[fwed1]

Definatly plans.

[PariahKing]

As someone who loves MI2 and the diabolically evil LeChuck and the Earl Boen voice over performances...the new LeChuck is insanely awesome in every way. I love this plot twist.

And he's definitely got something evil in mind.

Or does she? Remember the last thing she says is whispering to Guybrush that she wants to keep an eye on him.

[Avistew]

And in the end she says she wants to keep an eye on him... I'm not sure what to make of that. Is she lying to Guybrush? Does she want to keep an eye on him in a "good way"? (prevent him from getting into trouble or something). Does she suspect him, too?

I'm hoping for a LeChuck/Elaine make out scene.

That would be ironic. There hasn't even been one with her and Guybrush. Anyway, I think Elaine is falling for LeChuck, maby that's why she gave Guybrush her wedding ring. I'm sure everything that is happening will all tie back to LeChuck, then at the end he tells Guybrush his whole plot ""It all started when I gave Elaine that flower so we could communicate to sea animals"... Something like that.

I have to say, I like his newer Voice Actor compared to the one used in Episode 1, this guy seems to have some class to his voice and sounds like LeChuck.

I think it's actually the same guy, isn't it?

He's just not as well suited for the zombie LeChuck. I actually think this guy is the definitive human LeChuck though - he's really good. So good that I wouldn't mind if the human thing was permanent. It's really a refreshing plot twist and an awesome change in character.

[Ash735]

I could of sworn it was a different name in the credits.

[gordy]

As human Lechuck the voice rocks but he wasn't so bad as the zombie version either.
I get the feeling the LeChuck and Elaine both have hidden agendas. I can't see Elaine forgiving Lechuck as easily as she seems to have done. That would be like Princess Peach teaming up with Bowser (besides go-karting and playing tennis together).

Yeah, it's a different guy. Don't remember the name though.

[Avistew]

Yeah, I agree with the voice acting, I love his voice as a human while I found the zombie one weird (could be the same guy, I know).

I also agree that in a way, I wouldn't be upset if Lechuck stayed human, for a change. I'm enjoying the story and it's a nice change.

[Fealiks]

I'm finding the story interesting but I'm not sure where they're gonna go with it... Guybrush seems really jealous at this point, and Elaine seems to be a bit too friendly with LeChuck. If something actually happened there... that wouldn't be cool. Guybrush'd be all depressed and stuff. Having said that, I don't think Elaine and Guybrush are that good a couple anyway (I like it so far as the dominating wife bossing him around and stuff, but I don't think their relationship is developed enough to go beyond that without it feeling like we've missed out on too much character development).

[SHODANFreeman]

I have a feeling Lechuck is genuinely good and near the end of the series he'll "sacrifice" himself to save them, and somehow in the process absorb the pox again and be the evil Lechuck we've all killed countless times.

[Avistew]

Morgan doesn't seem to like Elaine, either. And Guybrush lied about her being a male to his wife.
There /could/ be some kind of misunderstanding. Guybrush thinks there is something between Elaine and Lechuck, Elain worries that there might be something between Guybrush and Morgan.
Or, they're both jealous but can't why the other should be.

If something actually happened though, I'd be really pissed

Actually yeah, that's pretty likely.

I doubt it. Way to obvious and anticlimactic. The whole Pox thing might not last till the last chapter.

Something has to happen to LeChuck at the end.. if he's going to be in a different incarnation in the next game. But also remember LeChuck might be human but he's still a pirate and pirates aren't nice, and according to the story in the first Monkey Island game he was in love with Elaine while he was living.

[GrimmGhost]

Ok, it might sound wird... but... whot about monkeys? ther was a whole cargo of monkeys on the ship, and remember that strange monkey that looked like talking with LeChuck when we first see him in episode 2? Is It possible that monkeys have pox too? Abowe all, all LeChuck and Elein are doing is about monkeys...
